I am currently putting
together the story of Frank’s life based on my research. His role
in my research has probably been the most significant for many reasons
and as a result I have decided to work on his story first. I will hopefully
begin posting his story over the next few days, containing details of
his early life through to his service with the Cameronians (Scottish Rifles)
in World War I, when he gave his life. A very colourful man who liked
his pipe, as you can see from his photo. In the meantime, I have included
the link in the menu on the left of this page which will take you to the
official War Graves memorial for Frank, which includes the details of
where he is officially remembered, the inscription and a brief story of
WWI at the time he was killed. |
